    Glossy black rear diffuser

    Glossy black rear diffuser
    Does anyone know why the rear diffuser is mat black and not glossy like the front splitter? Any heat issues painting it glossy black?

    I dont think so heat will have any effect of the gloss black finish. The R8s have gloss black grills / diffuser.
    I have seen people paint the rear lower bumper the body color.

    No heat issues at all. I painted mine matt white to match the body color and have no issues. I think it looks much better now compared to that plastic looking diffuser.

    Looks good. I see you painted the grill under the tail lights also gloss black.
    Do you have any more pictures.

    Yeah, I painted the grill under the tails lights to match it with my shinny carbon fiber parts. Looks much better now. Here are some more pics.
